What’s an example of an alternative with a really great recommendation algorithm?

Things like recommendation algorithms are difficult for small companies/individuals to provide. Let alone the library of music.

lame. The web versions suck.

Checked out name.

The EU executive said TikTok has failed to comply with the Digital Services Act’s obligation to publish an advertisement repository which allows researchers and users to detect scam advertisements.

The DSA requires online platforms to do more to tackle illegal and harmful content as well as provide information on advertisements.

I wish we had these rules in the US.

Targeted advertising can be insidious, and it’s difficult to uncover some of the worst stuff because it’s not really broadcasted widely.

If I remember correctly, Meta has had such databases available in the past.

I wonder what the practical reasons for starting with h.264 are.

I wonder if an incentive to be well built and reliable ends up being the fact they are strategic assets that can be “called into service” for decades.

This is some conspiracy brain thinking, but… they did find secret communication devices…

They also shouldn’t report on the horse race. They should report on issues.

Reporting on elections is always disappointing.

As I remember things, TVDB is the one with the weird episode splitting and ordering…

This is a joke, for anyone unsure.

He’s a dummy.

That’s, like, a normal logical one. It’s actually food, it’s spicy. It makes sense to compete to see who can handle the spicy food. This is independently invented every day.

Stealing faucets from public bathrooms? That’s not a normal logical one. That’s a devious lick, and something invented to be highly memetic and propelled by a highly optimized algorithm that incentivizes recency, novelty, and dopamine hacking. It even effectively had a brand name!

Yeah, no worry about the lithium fires. Fuck those chromebooks.

You didn’t have the same social and monetary incentives TikTok provides.

I don’t remember Friendster causing mayhem like this.

Lemmy seems to not be spreading challenges either.

You have a point, but TikTok has a unique power in this moment.

And if the students did see it on TikTok, then it’s factual, specific, reporting.

TikTok is at the forefront of designing algorithms that optimize for this sort of situation. Reddit isn’t. YouTube does not appear to be. They have their own issues, but it’s not exactly this sort of optimization.

VRChat is another social network not optimized around incentivizing this mimicking and reposting behavior.

Snapchat is not built around this sort of algorithm either.

Oh? That’s great to hear. That means I’m out of date on that. I have a friend who experienced this once.

Sadly, it’s not uncommon from what I understand.

Ever heard about software devs not being able to work on personal projects because all the code they produce, even off the clock is owned by their employer?

The town square shouldn’t have regional muzzles as a feature.
